Great news, for today! We are heading to the east and expanding in this direction. We got an sponsored IX port from PITER-IX FRA at NIKHEF. The guys from PITER-IX (Piter-IX Co. Ltd.) are sponsoring the port and I organized the cross-connect. This port increases the access and capacity to networks of the east and allows us to exchange traffic directly swith them. We are very happy that PITER-IX is doing the sponsoring and thanking them for their support. If you are looking for IX ports, check them out!

Node [kcm1.us] is completely down including connections to SIX and GCP. I haven’t got any reply from the sponsor, so sponsoring of this node ends as it looks like. It was great and thanks for the sponsoring!

I will remove all tunnels and connections within the next few days.

Currently, I looking for replacement within Kansas City including the option for IXP access. If you can sponsor a node at Kansas City with connection to SIX please reach me out (j@route64.org).

Great news: We are happy to announce that ROUTE64 got found an additional infrastructure sponsor. Macarne LLC (https://macarne.com/) has joined the ROUTE64 community and sponsors IPv4 and IPv6 transit at Amsterdam, Netherlands. The connectivity via Macarne LLC has massively improved the traffic mix within ROUTE64. For example just one AS between ROUTE64 and DTAG. Enjoy it. Do you looking for great IP transit, Ethernet services or L2 transport. Just get with them in contact!

Rollout of a new version of the manager has been done.

Main topics of this change:

• Realtime tunnel / tunnelbroker operations. All tunnel / tunnelbroker operations on router side are processed in realtime. Get realtime data of your tunnel creation states - detailed states of tunnel operation. No need to wait few minutes until tunnel is configured. Click and wait until state changed to Active (few seconds).
• Templates fixed for messages.

We have a new sponsor of ipv4 and ipv6 transit in our Frankfurt and London locations. AS203446 (https://as203446.net/) is sponsoring ip transit for route64. Do you need DDoS protection, get with them in touch!

We have great success with our tunnelbroker service. Currently, just fully loaded. We have added additional tunnelbroker resources at Amsterdam (node ams1.nl). We'll add additional resources in other locations too.

Have fun!

Great news: I can announce that we have a new node (ams1.nl) ready at Amsterdam, Netherlands which will have great connectivity to a bunch of IXPs, transits,.. starting with SpeedIX. This node will also have free capacity for tunnelbroker (no bgp) services.
